    Very funny.
    Not so much when we try to raise a discussion in AH that may take some time to get going, maybe a discussion regarding stuff deep in folk;s consciousness, mayabe that stuff relates to depression.

    No, Sharpshooter, its not fair.

    Some of us want to hear the opinions and ideas and desires of people who want to engage with stuff. And we do not want to be be re-directed to the TAr forum.

    But when the thread is directed to the FlirTar forum you lose interest?

    AH is about the unexpected, the unusual, the freaky all matters of crazy possibility in hooking up for love and/or sex.

    No, AHs is not a forum for people looking to hook up for love and/or sex.

    The FlirTar forum is where you can post about this kind of thing and not have your thread closed once it doesn't go too far even for FlirTar.

    Tar's forum is a love in for boardsies who all know each other or want to badly know each other.

    You seem well acquainted with it, why don't you give it a go?

    seriously AH is for having a laugh, there are other places for serious discussion. why don't you ignore him. you know the people in AH are there for the fun factor.

    Its just he keeps turning up.

    And, its all in jokes and har de har if you are in with my gang. It just ruins everything going on in AH, when there is a discussion building up.

    Especially when the topic is about anything to do with sexuality and meeting people. Tar Aldarion just has to get his oar in and then the topic is ruined.

    Folk are either put off posting in the thread again because they perceive some kind of 'in joke' going on. or else the whole thread gets re-routed to this guy' personal forum.

    It takes a while on AH for a discussion to build up, but he keeps on ruining it with butting in with silly interjections, and then we can't discuss anything if the thread is re-routed to his fúcken love in forum!

    I personally avoid AfterHours so can't say much but in light of above posters comment, it's safe to say a little reminder of the "Ignore" feature would be beneficial to the OP.

    If the AH Mods have stated they can't see much wrong with Tar's posts / he's not done anything to warrant any ModAction / is in line with the Charter and any off-forum posts/threads are being moved to more appropriate forums then feel free to use the Ignore Feature so you don't have to read his posts and/or don't click any threads created by him.


    AH can have very dissenting opinions from my own, so I would be loathe to use the ignore function, in case, there might be a significant point I might need to think about. Altough, I doubt TA would ever come out with anything intelligent enough that would warrant considering.


    Just my 2cents.

    EDIT:
    And I say that as someone who's had to give Tar the occasional wrist-slap in Counter-Strike now and then, no In-Crowd here :pac: Even if he is pretty cuddly in person.
    Firstly, thats really unfair, to assume that everything is a ok just becasue the AH mods have said so, and in fairness, its only sharpshooter here, acting all buddy with Tar Aldarion, and as you Ropedrink with your

    Thirdly, and finally- the whole thread gets derailed by these kind of silly comments spouted from TA. Where you had first time posters cautiously suggesting their opinion, they shut up very fast when some stupid 'flirty' interjection comes in from TA.

    Darlughda, look at it reasonably. You're literally the only one complaining. If he was such a big problem, don't you think there'd be loads more? Whether you personally find him funny is irrelevant, and he's not breaking any rules, so what on earth do you expect him to be banned (if that is indeed what you're suggesting) for? Because you, and evidently, you alone don't like him?

    Bit much, don't you think? So why don't you propose a more logical solution, as if the mods banned everyone that one or two personally dislike or don't find funny, there'd be hardly anyone left.

    It really seems like you just have a personal vendetta because you're not presenting a particularly rational argument.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,628 ✭✭✭Asok


    Thank you for the feedback, If you don't want to see the posts of another user just put them on ignore.

    I don't frequent AH but I do trust the opinion of its mods and the fact this is the only complaint about it that has been raised so I don't see any reason to ask a user to stick to any particular forum. This would not only be unfair to that user but would be flat out against the spirit of this site.

    We have a huge amount of users and you will always come across those who will rub you the wrong way, how you deal with it is entirely up to you but we will not censure another user just because one person finds them annoying.

    Please cut out the personal abuse, if I see more of it you will lose access to this forum.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,685 ✭✭✭✭BlitzKrieg


    so he annoys you, but you wont report him, wont ignore him and you refuse to consider the notion of posting in other forums on boards???

    You have alot of options that you are just outright ignoring for pretty flimsey reasons.

    AH may be more laxed then other forums when it comes to topics but it does tend to have the 2nd most strict moderators on the website (politics edges them up due to soapboxing). If they say he hasnt done anything to warrent a ban or anything I believe them.

    And stop with all this *his* forum bollocks, being mod of any forum (even one as warped and disturbed as the cuckoo's nest) does not make the forum *yours* The Xbox forum is not my forum, its where I clean up after the children peed themselves.

    again if we could ban people for simply being annoying boards would be alot smaller (and chances would be high that you annoy someone and would be banned too)

    Somebody needs a ban from the Feedback forum for trolling...

    4 AM feedback threads - do they ever end well?


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,097 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    She reminds me of jazzy, before he came to love me too. The only thing that pains my soul is tallaght01 thanking her, and forsaking me. No prescriptions for me any time soon. Also she is fairly deluded, there are no in jokes from 'my' forum, I barely post there for any to form, also nobody in there posts in AH ever? I mean like ever.

    Nearly all the threads that are moved there are not even posted in by any of us until they are moved there. So what is your point? Even after the mods told you to stop baiting me you jsut moved on and started abusing other posters whilst I returned to the topic. Come visit forum 1312 dar, we can flirt it out.

    Nothing like an erection in feedback.

    That's blackmail


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭Sarky


    Restrain Tar from posting? That's like the digital version of tying him up and gagging him. Hawt.

    .Why can't Tar Aldarion keep to his own forum? He is not funny. And he just ruins discussions in AH.

    He thinks he is hilarious injecting his opinion to AH discussion, but they usually end up overthanked by his silly followers, and the thread gets derailed with his love in.

    No, I have not reported his posts, Nonetheless, its getting really annoying when people who may be new posters are genuinely offering their opinions and/or experiences to have this kind of silly post turning up again and again. After all, he does have his own forum.


    He's perfectly entitled to post wherever he likes and what ever he likes.

    if you don't like it, tough!

    I'm afraid if that stays up, so will the pic l ;)

    Sarky, back in your forum, you are outside your allotted posting radius!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,183 ✭✭✭✭Will


    If you've such an issue with Tar just throw her on ignore. As a member of this site as long as she doesn't break any rules in the charter she is perfectly entitled to post wherever she likes. Same for any member. I've a few people on ignore as they annoy me hugely. Just do the same.

    You can ignore any particular poster by clicking on their name and add them to your ignore list. Then they will never bother you again.

    My liking for you has just been downrated to over-zealous


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,028 ✭✭✭✭--LOS--


    As I recall Darlughda, you made a fair shot at derailing that thread yourself, the discussion simply asked whether it was worse for girls to sleep around than guys. Your response....you write a porn script :confused:

    Tar answered the question very simply, there was no aim to be funny or insult to be taken from her response.

    It is very clear you have some kind of personal vendetta against Tar.Aldarion

    Looks like Tar's being causing trouble since the 1950s.:pac:

    Registry Laws Tar Sex-Crime Convicts With Broad Brush
    By TODD S. PURDUM
    Published: July 01, 1997

    LOS ANGELES, June 30 — A 63-year-old closeted gay man, arrested in the 1950's in San Diego for having oral sex in a parked car with a fellow sailor, suddenly finds his life shattered when a neighbor opens a letter meant for him from the State of California ordering him to be photographed, fingerprinted and registered as a sex offender.
